Opinion on Gehringer baseball

[jimjim]

Hi,

My only question regarding this ball is the inscription. I have never heard of a forged Charlie Gehringer ball before, but the numbers on the inscription are a bit different from the examples I have seen before. This ball comes with a SGC COA. I found one ball online from a Goldin Auction with JSA COA that has the same type of numbers. Otherwise, the other examples are different. Thanks for the help.

It's good. He signed with quite a few different inscriptions.

Always a nice autograph and really classy looking. He must have cared how he signed to make it a nice autograph. Wish some of todays players signed like that.

...but he was quietly polite and focused carefully on each signature.

IMHO, a true gentleman. But that is only from my limited number of interactions with him in the late 1980's and very early 1990's. If I recall correctly, the shows were Jim Hawkins productions in the greater Detroit area.

I have a few signed balls and a couple dozen signed cards from him and it all looks good to me.

I wish that I had decided to make a road trip from VA to Michigan when Gehringher was signing at a local show. Michigan is quite a hike for one guy. I just always liked his signature.

He was a great TTM and I wish I would I would have sent him more cards
